Robin Hudson is now executive producer of Special Reports and she is feeling relatively settled, if bored. She has taken on wide-eyed, small-town girl Kathy Loblaws as an intern and invited her to a Girls' Night Out - a semi-regular frenzy of female bonding meant to alleviate Robin's girlfriends' love crises and her own ennui. It's Halloween and Kathy doesn't show but telephones from a strange man's closet.

Aided by her pals, Robin must track down her errant charge through one long night of murder and mayhem, costumes and conncealed weapons, men who are (strangely enough) not what they seem and deja vu as Robin slowly realises that her search is really a deadly trip into the past, fuelled by an old curse.
